Comment 7 for bug 1678391

Hi Daniel:

    I am now only using Ubuntu Studio 16.04.2LTS Release amd64 xenial.

I do not plan on switching unless I like a future release of LTS Studio.

I have tried your directions but does not work for my version.

Someone from ultimate media downloder made it so it just needed my email
address to unlok it and works fine.

I STILL cannot install these PAID software items How can these be
installed on my Ubuntu Studio 16.04 ????
